I used these for a nightly homework assignment to practice with nonfiction texts. Some nights I gave the multiple choice questions, other nights the sentence writing ones. It was also nice to be able to give the alternate the next day to see how well students could recall where to find the information, or practice writing their responses in complete sentences.
